Amendment 1 #
Motion for a resolution Recital A A. whereas the Lisbon Treaty introduced a new constitutional framework of EU institutional transparency, with a view to an open, efficient and independent European administration (Article 298 TFEU), by establishing a firm fundamental right of access to documents of EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies; this right is afforded by the Treaty not only to EU citizens but also to any natural or legal person residing in a Member State and should nevertheless be exercised in compliance with the general principles and limits (set with a view to protecting certain public or private interests) laid down by the regulations adopted by the European Parliament and the Council (Article 15 TFEU),
Amendment 3 #
Motion for a resolution Recital C C. whereas the new Treaties deleted any reference to ‘the preservation of the effectiveness of the decision-making process’ (Articles 255 and 207(3) of the former TEC) as a possible limit to transparency, thereby deleting a Treaty basis for the so-called ‘space to think’ of Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001, which allows access to be refused to a document relating to a matter where the decision has not yet been taken by the institution, if this 'would seriously undermine the institution's decision- making process', unless access is justified by 'an overriding public interest in disclosure',

Motion for a resolution Paragraph 24 24. Welcomes the consensus reached by the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) and the European Ombudsman on the appropriate balance between data protection and transparency, especially as regards the proactive approach meaning that ‘institutions assess and subsequently make clear to data subjects – before or at least at the moment they collect their data – the extent to which the processing of such data includes or might include its public disclosure’; this enables there to be a meeting point between the interest of individuals in protecting their privacy and the burdens placed on data processors with regard to the requirement to collect and retain personal data (see also in this regard the judgment of the Court of Justice 'College van burgemeester en wethouders van Rotterdam' of 7 May 2009);
